As Saturday marked the start of National Doughnut Week, this week’s BAKO NW blog has been taken over by these lip-lickingly indulgent treats.

Running between the 11th and 18th May this year, National Doughnut Week sees bakers across the country cook up all manner of delicious doughnuts, with profits going towards national charity, The Children’s Trust. This is an opportunity for bakers to help out a very worthy cause, so to inspire local bakers to get involved we’ve come up with a different doughnut flavour idea for every day of the week.

Classic jam Mondays

The original and some say still the best, they’re also easy to craft thanks to specially prepared doughnut mixes like Craigmillar’s doughnut concentrate, available from BAKO North Western.

Healthy option Tuesdays

Readi-Bake brand baked doughnuts contain 40 per cent less fat than traditional fried ring doughnuts, making them a great alternative for more health-conscious customers who still can’t resist a good doughnut now and again.
